Hi all,

As usual, I am kinda tilted. The reason this time is because I read this whole damn thread backwards!! Anyway, I seem to have the gist of things now and I actually have to say that I agree with some of the points 5LeepWalker sp? brought up and I agree the prizes should remain within their own niche however you have to bear in mind also from BF's point of view, they are primarily a sports betting site with some high profile Ambassadors for their other sports and I guess they would just like to utilise them as well as the fact that many people do follow sports and would love to have a day out with them.

That being said, I do understand and in fact personally if I was the customer would prefer a poker related prize as that is why im playing a poker tournament!! I haven't had the chance to discuss this with betfair yet so hope I am not overstepping my boundaries by saying if there is anyone who wins and doesn't want their day out with the respective sports prize won I am happy to do something poker related with the winner. Perhaps a hand history session via skype + teamviewer. Maybe a sweat? Maybe some HU games...Im open to most things so just let me know what you fancy.

Secondly, yes, you did see me playing 10 tables @ 5-10 the other day...what you forgot to mention was that I got my ass handed to me! Was not fun. Perhaps I will post a graph for you guys to have fun and laugh at. Online poker is bloody hard these days. I thought the whole point of being sponsored was to have a **** pro account, but I guess I didn't even get that bit right! more tilt.

Anyway, hopefully I can get all the equipment set up and do this broadcasting thing for tonight. Any questions let me know guys + girls.

Hi guys,

For some reason my PC crashed and now the mic doesn't seem to be outputting. No one seems to be able to hear me right now!

Lovely teething issues. I have been told next week I will have new hardware which is simple and efficient to use and we will test it thoroughly in advance :)

In the mean time, if you guys could ask me any questions you have here and I will do my best to answer them accordingly. If there is anything you want me to answer on the broadcast next week, just let me know and I will save it until then.

Hi Kunkuwap,

What is your favorite hand?

ty.

eckithump:

Apart from the obvious AA, I do not have a single favourite hand. Allow me to explain.

We play poker to make money. AA is factually the most profitable hand for every poker player who plays to make money and has played a reasonable sample size. Therefore, my favourite hand is the hand which makes me the most $$$. "i need a dolla "

Secondly, favourite as in fun hands, well, I like all speculative hands as they are 'fun'. But you have to take care and make sure you are deep enough to call with these speculative hands and that you do not get in trouble when only hitting a pair with them instead of their actual draw potentials i.e. 57ss etc.

Can a homosexual be sexist ?

Thats just a general question btw, not aimed at anyone in particular.

I have had some problems with the commentary and I do not wish to start it up again in case it all crashes again, however I will attempt to respond to any questions you may have here and will ensure everything is 100% for next week.
Good luck all

Who is your poker hero and why?

Week 1

My KK v QQ. Out!

Thank you and goodnight!

Hi eckithump

I have a number of players I respect.

I love the way Daniel Negranu reads the game, one of the very best live players, I have had the good fortune to play against Ivey several times and he just seems to be able to read souls, and when that doesn't work, he can just flop the nuts on demand. A very difficult player to play. I also have great respect for some of my contemporaries like Jake Cody and Sam Trickett to name just a couple. There are so many good players out there it's a very tough game at times.
Good luck, John

John,

If I win the promotion can we ignore the ambassador prize and go on the pi** for the day paid for be bf.  Bare in mind that if will probably end up costing them more but I did get off to a miserable start finishing 41st!

The kk vs qq hand i folded kq so gilfie had one out

I played truly appallingly tonight btw.

does the word re-buy not men anything to u joker ?? or u just being a tight arse lol

and before all the grammer experts jump on me that was meant to 'mean'

this happened just after the break feed and i dont know exactly where i finished just in the last 10 bracket

so rebuy and add on finished

I think its primarily a social thing rather than a financial thing, though with the top 5 getting paid, and cash to be won on the night, I think enough will play the last couple.But could be wrong of course.

The 250$ added wasn't pulling enough players in(the other week there was 39 i seem to recall)and a few of them were russians playing simply for the added value, so we felt it needed a shake up.If this needs to be tweaked again it can be and already has been.

As has been said several of us are probably more focussed on the stts we have running at the same time and use this simply as a chance to catch up with mates and perhaps suck out on them.
